are made. No town of this size January 1. to April 1. 1912:
like the following:
Henry Schroeder, near Dil-
worth, Clay County, Minnesota,
in the spring of 1911, bought 420
acres of land paying $75.00 an
acre for it. He planted it all in
potatoes and in the fall the potato harvest brought him Si20.00
an acre, or in other words, paid
for the farm and left him $45.00
an acre clear money besides.
Mr. E. D. Grant, the Secretary of the Clay County, Minnesota Potato Growers Association, in 1911, planted 80 acres to
potatoes in the same locality,
and the crop sold for $8,976.00,
or $112.00 an acre.
These potatoes were grown in
Minnesota and North Dakota
and there are thousands of
acres in these states that will
duplicate these yields and returns. Minnesota is noted too
for the quality of its potatoes.
Keep up the war cry, "Back to
the goil," the facts justify it.
Almost every section of this
state is a banner potato producer, and Morrison county should
lead the world in potato production.

J. J. Brummer made a new

with stone. He says it is the
only way to make a well last
for a life time.
The rye is in a better condition this spring than it was last
spring.
J. J. Brummer started to
work on John Kippley's new

foundation. It is going to be 34

cured from Karl Kapsner.
With the material in Pierz.
and surrounding country for a
ball team, and the facility for
obtaining games with other
teams along the Soo line, the
enthusiasm and energy of our
manager and individual players
should mark the season of 1912
a most successful one. A few
of our players have played in
moderately fast teams. With a
little practice, the whole aggregation should be at least e-
qual to the semi-professional
teams of our neighboring villages and cities.
There is only one thing lacking for the success of the team.
Can you guess it'*1 It is the
mazuma, penge, geld, dust,
dough, spondulex—call it what
you please-the necessary article to give them the proper
start. There is the grand
stand to repair, balls and bats
to buy etc., which all takes
money; and it is almost tco
much to expect tin- members of
the team to advance it- Only a
small sum from each of the fans
will give them the required a-
mount. It is admitted that the
management of baseball affairs
the last two }xears was not
kept sufficiently rigid; but from
all indications, such will not be
tlie case this 3'ear.
So long as we furnish
in the country is so rich in -
ical talent. We had good bands
here years ago; but because a
few members moved to other
parts of the country, the interest in music of those who remained, lagged more and more
as the meetings and practices
became fewer and further between until they ceased entirely. And now, it is only on ver-
y rare occassions that we hear
the sound of a baritone or of a
cornet.
It is true, many of the members of the old bands can no
longer be expected to take ver-
y active parts in such an organization; but, in numbers, if not
in ability, their places can be
more than filled by promising
youngsters. Such members of ________________________________________________
